I just read that whole "Connected Careers" manual and it looks like yet another EA gimmick they create to get kids sucked into and make their parents buy the game

But for it does sound cool on paper. Something like this new real college draft picks though

:what:

There was a lot of sh!t games didn't have when we were kids. Thats no reason for them not to be in there now. I could understand if you didn't want some sort of unnecessary camera angle option in the game. But audibles and hot routes? In a football game? You don't want that in there? What next? Remove the tight ends?

I didn't say remove audibles :wtf:
You gonna continue taking what I said and add some shyt I didn't say to it during the rest of this convo dawg?
I said I don't do all the extra bullshyt. Its bullshyt.
I play against dudes who do that shyt all day long, and I win more than I lose
AND WE PLAY FOR $$$
So yeah, you can hot route all day long. But its bullshyt imo.
Pick a damn play, then hope you don't get sacked on some Tecmo Bowl I picked your play shyt :shaq:
I would STILL gain yards if you picked my play and I had Bo Jackson, just sayin :hula:
But I digress... If you wanna do all that horseshyt you wanna do?
Welp, I guess you gonna have to nab yoself a Kinect to make it happen smoothly
Otherwise, complain about it. Cuz now nikkaz who didn't do all that stuff, might start doing it :whistle:

:stopitslime: You sound like a fanboy.

You need to remember, some of us coem from playing NCAA and the old Madden way where it was easy to make pre-snap adjustments without having to have multiple menus pop up on the screen.

In NCAA I can move my secondary, dline, and linebackers before the ball is snapped. Right now in Madden I barely can do one before the ball is snapped.
theres an option to turn it off go to menu and press turn off strategy pad

when they first put it in they released a patch a few months later by that time i was so used to the strategy pad i couldnt go back to the old way strategy pad is way faster if u know how to do it

:ooh: Took about 15min on xbox :win:

You don't USE the Redskins, you EXPERIENCE them :lawd:

I did say I was gonna post a video of me playing it, correct?
When I show you how it works, will you still hate?
Vid will be posted soon :ufdup:

Dude, where does this animosity come from? I'm not hating, I'm reporting what I read in a thread, by a multitude of people. I just said you were a small sample size, which is true.

Believe me Voice Commands in football is old news. NFL Gameday 2004 already did this. I called EA Rep out about it, him saying it was never done before in a football game and he had to cop a plea.

NFL GameDay 2004 - PlayStation 2 Review at IGN

The most talked about addition to NFL GameDay 2004, however, is the Headset Voice Recognition. A cool little bonus that rewards people for buying SOCOM, the USB VR support allows players to actually "call" the game instead of doing so manually. Or at least, call some of its more basic aspects. Recognizing almost 40 different vocal commands between the offensive and defensive set, the device enables users to do everything from hike the ball to send players in motion (make sure to hold down R2 to activate it). Other commands, like referee time outs, onside kicks, defensive changes, and no-huddle plays can all be instructed through the headset as well, and when used in conjunction with some of the features we highlighted earlier, brings an all-new element to the video football experience.

And it wasn't working so great then

The headset commands, for example, don't always register the first time you say them and any unrecognizable request automatically takes you to the quit screen. It would have been a better move to flash a small message on the screen that says, "Command not recognized" or something similar rather than prompt you to leave.

Connected Careers sounds like a lame rpg ish that looks cool on paper but after a week you will get bored of it and itll be filled with glitches

Seems coo to me,

could be a much needed improvement from the stale franchise mode they have had for years, especially if you experience it with multi-players. IMO if it works right it could be Epic!!

This is bad b/c I don't think you can edit players skin tones in CC.

At least with NCAA you can correct this foolishness.

can't you import draft classes?

Yup. :myman:

While there are some issues in the demo, I don't see anything that is a gamekiller

Sounds like affirmative action to me.

Besides, I've met Asian "TYRONES" :laff:
